Mockup before putting carpet back in.

- 13 Ball shifter
- shortened stock shifter, bent it back with torch til 2nd gear was almost touching the seat
- 2006 Colbat SS leather boot

Price for everything = Zero, Zip, Nadda, Freebie


Note: The 13ball is just sitting there for now. I goes down to the thicker part of the shifter

Everyone back in the day did 8balls so I wanted to be a lil different. I like it, it's not no TMN but it is better then stock.

Be kinda funny if the ball was heavy enough where you could just clutch in 3rd and it would just fall into 4th

It's a regular billards ball, not that heavy, most shift knobs i've seen wieigh more then the ball.

You should cut your shifter for now...I did that as many others have...kinda gives you that short shifter feel....

I have a Fidanza ss now though....
